Solving Large-scale Dense SOCP on Heterogeneous Computing Platform

To minimize negative impact of uncertainties in optimal radiotherapy planning for cancer treatment, a convex robust counterpart of a conventional model has been proposed. The robust model is a large-scale dense SOCP. However, presently, such an approach is clinically infeasible due to excessive computational demands associated with solving the resulting problem. We investigate the use of heterogeneous platforms, namely GP-GPU, to speed up linear algebra operations required by IPM solver.
